'My Little Pony Friendship is Magic' returns this winter -- EXCLUSIVE

Start plotting your return trip to Equestria: EW can exclusively report that the fourth season of My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic will premiere this winter.

There are sure to be more than a few surprises coming up for Twilight and friends. In the third-season finale, Twilight Sparkle gained her wings and became a princess. “What we didn’t want to do was change who she is as a character, because she’s certainly someone that everyone’s proud to know and love,” MLP head writer Meghan McCarthy previously told EW. “I don’t think becoming a princess really changes her; I think it’s going to introduce some new challenges for her.”
